Meet Timothy L. Carpenter, DMD

Home > Meet Us > Timothy Carpenter, DMD

Timothy L. Carpenter, DMD, has established himself as one of the most caring & skilled dentists in Poway. His passion for dentistry & strong ethics truly show in the way he treats his patients & team. He takes great pride in his work & strives to make every patient feel comfortable during their visit. This has earned him a reputation of being gentle, detail oriented & compassionate.

Dr. Carpenter was born & raised in Oregon, where he also completed his undergraduate & dental education. After completing a residency in Idaho, he & his wife moved to California to be closer to family & enjoy all of the wonderful outdoor opportunities the state has to offer. He loves serving his patients & would be happy to meet with you to help you achieve your dental goals.

Education & Training

After he graduated magna cum laude with Honors from the University of Oregon, Dr. Carpenter got a Doctor of Dental Medicine, DMD, degree with Honors from the Oregon Health & Science University. While in dental school, he served as the student body president & earned the Outstanding Student Loader award from the American College of Dentists & the Great Interest & Accomplishment award from the American Academy of Oral & Maxillofacial Radiology. Rather than entering immediately into practice, he chose to complete an additional year of post-doctoral training, enhancing his skills in several aspects of general dentistry, including surgical & cosmetic dentistry.

Dr. Carpenter continues to dedicate himself to advancing his skills by completing hours of continuing education coursework & advanced training every year, with an emphasis on implant & restorative dentistry. Dr. Carpenter is also a strong believer in giving back & has done volunteer dentistry abroad in the Philippines & numerous free dental care events in the local community, including San Diego Stand Down & Give Kids A Smile.

  • The American Dental Association
  • The California Dental Association
  • The San Diego County Dental Society
